sammymvpknight Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I honestly think that Fitzgerald’s prime was a bit disappointing. Expectations were really high...but he never put up a 1500 yard season. He was consistently great for a very long-time...but he was never a juggernaut like Moss, Owens, Harrison, Johnson, or even Brown. Sterling had a very similar prime...yet in an era less dominated by passing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugger Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Larry Fizgerald is one of my favorite non-Packers players - even tho he broke our hearts in 2015 - but what Sterling did in his era is more impressive than Fitz' prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteyPercyPonde Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I gotta say Larry though Sterling had a couple great years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus why I said that Sharpe had a very similar prime as Fitzgerald, but in a less pass heavy era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ET80 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Sharpe was basically Andre Johnson before Andre Johnson was in high school, with an actual QB throwing him the ball. He was incredibly physical, had breakaway speed in the open field, ram some sick routes and had some good hands to rely on. Shannon Sharpe always said his brother was the more talented of the two, and Sharpe was a HoF caliber player in his own right. Might be lip service, but worth noting...

I did and Sterling was a beast (hell, I saw the Lombardi Packers play!). For a couple of years he was all we had at WR. I rarely saw him drop a pass that hit him in the hands. Unfortunately for him and the Packers his career was cut short by a neck injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeezla Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Larry Fitzgerald during their playoff run to the SB was the best WR I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
